Farmers adjust spending as 1934 income rises in Iowa
In 1934 Iowa farmers faced higher food and clothing costs while garden harvests and drought kept purchases tight. A study by Miss M Attie Souder using 15 families shows food outlay rising to over 325 dollars per family with clothing up about 119 dollars. Insurance and operating costs nearly doubled as households prioritized essentials over other expenses. Health costs rose as a notable exception with a total expenditure increase of 291 dollars year over year.

Ames Iowa Grain Economists Predict No Extreme Corn Prices
Iowa State College economists say corn prices this fall likely neither extremely low nor unusually high for 1935. July 1 stocks show decline from 1933 and 1934, with U.S. on farm stocks at 200 million and Iowa at 40 million. Crop estimates suggest potential yields around 2.9 billion bushels nationally, but frost risk could alter outcomes.
